dhpotts Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Is anyone with an ES350 having a problem with front passenger seat airbag activation switch going on and off? If you have someone that weights about 100 lbs or so, the airbag light keeps going on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amf1932 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Definitely sounds like a sensor problem. Bring the car back to your dealer and have it corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwink24 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 you have the imagine the sensor on the bottom of the seat, it measures the weight of the occupant to ensure the airbag does more good than harm. The problem is, it only measures "butt force", so just the weight you put on the seat, so your arms and legs or anything your leaning on will reduce that weight. So someone around 100lbs might only be putting down 70 lbs of "butt force" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detaildoc Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I too have this problem. I took my car back to the dealer today in Riverside, CA and they are taking care of it. Something about changing the sensor and some mini computer then recalibrating it. It should be fixed by tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
